[EMBOSS] ./configure blaims about missing package although xorg-x11-proto-devel is installed

[Lentes, Bernd]

Hi,

i'm new to EMBOSS and trying to install it for one of our developers. We downloaded the current version, unpacked it and started ./configure. It blaims about missing xorg-x11-proto-devel, although it is installed:

pc56846:~/EMBOSS-6.2.0 # rpm -q xorg-x11-proto-devel
xorg-x11-proto-devel-7.4-1.24.25.42

The exact error is:
X11 graphics have been selected but no X11 header files
have been found.

This error usually happens on Linux/MacOSX distributions
where the optional X11 development files have not been installed.
On Linux RPM systems this package is usually called something
like xorg-x11-proto-devel whereas on Debian/Ubuntu it may
be called x-dev. On MacOSX installation DVDs the X11 files
can usually be found as an explicitly named optional
installation.


I tried version 6.2.0 and 6.5.7. Host is a SLES 11 SP1, 64bit.
I also tried "./configure --x-includes=/usr/include/X11/", but it didn't suceed.

Any ideas ?


Bernd
